Its enough to make any teenagers head spin.But the headlines swirling around Kalyn Ponga has not proven a distraction for the NRL prodigy, North Queensland teammate Kyle Feldt says.Since signing a lucrative four-year Newcastle deal from 2018, the 18-year-old Ponga has not been out of the news - sometimes for all the wrong reasons.Pongas father caused a stir when he asked North Queensland to release his son to Newcastle a year early because they were neglecting his welfare.The Knights have made it clear they have not given up hope of Ponga playing for them in 2017 after sealing the deal that will make him the highest paid teenager in NRL history.It would distract most veterans, let alone a youngster with just two NRL games experience.But Feldt said it had been business as usual for Ponga at pre-season training.Hes alright. Hes not too worried about all that, Feldt said.Fringe Queensland player Feldt said he was more worried about Ponga taking his first grade spot.Ponga played two games - both finals - for the then defending champions last year on the wing.Hes just trying to secure a spot in our team, Feldt said of Pongas mindset.Hes part of that young group of players who keep pushing for spots.North Queensland said they have no intention of releasing Ponga.Cowboys football manager Peter Parr this week bit his tongue when quizzed about Pongas fathers claim, only saying he was proud of the clubs player welfare.Meanwhile, Feldt has already made improvements in the pre-season in a bid to finally crack the Queensland State of Origin team.He was in the box seat for a Maroons debut before game one but was ultimately leapfrogged by Corey Oates and Dane Gagai.I came back in a lot better shape than my last preseason, looked after myself and came back at a better weight, Feldt said.It should put me in good stead for the season coming up.Nick Gordon Jersey . -- There were so many positives from the Orlando Magics first victory of the season that it was hard for coach Jacque Vaughn to stop praising his players.
